Bsc (Hons) Applied Computing is a top-up to our Level 4 & 5 Diploma in Computing. When you complete the course, you'll improve your career prospects and have the skills and knowledge to perform more effectively in your job.

In the digital age, it's essential to keep your skills up to date if you work in IT or computing. On this BSc (Hons) Applied Computing Learning at Work course, you can sharpen your IT and computing skills and get a degree while you work.

You'll develop your analytical, research, problem solving and decision making abilities alongside your IT skills. You'll get to put the skills you learn to work instantly in your job, contributing to the success of your company while learning about the current and future IT and computing requirements of businesses competing in the digital age.

Because the course is work-based, you need to already be in a full-time, part-time or voluntary role. The way you learn is flexible, so you can study wherever is most convenient for you and schedule your studies around your existing commitments.

You can tailor the course to match your professional and personal aspirations and your employer's objectives. You can specialise in areas such as emerging technologies, programming or web design.

Accredited by Chartered Management Institute (CMI)

LIBT Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Leadership and Management is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), which means you can apply for Chartered Manager through Fast-track status on completion of your studies. The students will also receive a CMI Level 7 Certificate in Strategic Management and Leadership Practise.

Course Content

To obtain this degree, you need to accumulate a total of 360 credits. You can get these credits in 3 ways:

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

You can get credit for the qualifications you already have, such as a business-based Foundation degree, HNC, HND or international equivalent. You may also be able to get credit for relevant business-based work experience.

This is called Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). You can use RPL for up to 240 (two thirds) of the 360 credits you need to get your degree.

Contact us to find out if you can receive RPL credit for your current qualifications or work experience.


Work-based learning (WBL) projects

Most of your learning will come from work-based learning (WBL) projects. These are projects that are valuable to your employer, which you complete at work. For example, developing an IT solution for your organisation. You'll research, analyse and present a well-reasoned recommendation to your employer as a professional report.

These projects won't involve activities you do in your day-to-day job as they need to involve new learning for you. You'll do most of the work for these projects in your normal working hours.


Taught modules

You can study campus-based or distance learning modules to expand your knowledge and understanding or to develop new skills in a more structured way.

Modules that previous students have studied include Computer Systems, Human-Computer Interaction Design, Design for Computer Animation, Web Engineering and Design, Information Security, Animation Programming and Scripting.

We use the best and most current research and professional practice alongside feedback from our students to make sure course content is relevant to your future career or further studies.

Therefore, some course content may change over time to reflect changes in the discipline or industry and some optional modules may not run every year. If a module doesn’t run, we’ll let you know as soon as possible and help you choose an alternative module.
